Ice thickness, Jan.12-13

[917guy]

There is enough ice to start plowing the Mazenod pond soon :D
so we are a 'go' this weekend, and need not bump the TSD Rally from Jan.19.

Which road do we enter off of?

Enter off Mazenod. See where the dirt road T-bones into Mazenod? There's an approach right there to head East and slightly South from there.

[NevadaJoe]

Got it.

Thanks Corey

hooray.
Ice racing here we come.
Corey i need to talk with you about understeer. and how to get rid of it.
It seems I have ruined my perfectly tuned factory dynamics.

[Corey]

For an STi - pull ebrake up one click (fully opens center diff). Apply full throttle, steer. No more understeer! ;)

I think tomorrow (Friday) morning on HOT103, Ace and Chrissy are going to do a quick Blurb on the Ice Racing.

Don't "quote" me on it.

Just confirming start time for tomorrow is 10am? Or do we need to be there earlier?

[RallyFan]

I had heard 9:30. The earlier the better... :)

[917guy]

Our schedule for many years has been:

Worker meeting at 9:30, driver's meeting at 9:45; first practice at 10 am. At least one race for each group by noon.

We will be ordering pizza, which Wayne will bring for noon. The first 16 workers get free pizza; drivers can add to our order. We are 2 miles from a lot of Regent etc restaurants. The problem is that they are quite busy about noon on a Sunday, and racers don't have long between races (60 minutes?)

We hope to wrap up by mid afternoon.
